No Flight Without the Shatter Quotes

“Hatching is not the end of what lies inside the egg, only the end of the shell around it. There’s no flight without the shatter, and no flock without the flight. What we’re made of will go on. A fledgling in some other place and time will look up for guidance and maybe see the path we leave behind, even when all of this as it is”—she flutters her free hand at the darkened desert —“dries and blows away. Change is comforting, in that way.”
― Brooke Bolander, No Flight Without the Shatter

“All the world’s a graveyard.”
― Brooke Bolander, No Flight Without the Shatter
